Gatefold Love Filled Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Gatefold, Love, Card, Honey Bee Stamps, how to, hand made card, Stamps, stamping, die cutting, card making, ilovedoingallthingscrafty, Vintage Love, Stencils

Hello friends!

While Valentine's Day may be behind us, there are countless opportunities ahead to celebrate love. The card I'm sharing today is ideal for the upcoming wedding season, serving perfectly as a wedding invitation, bridal shower note, or heartfelt thank-you card.


This gatefold card began with die-cutting the scalloped frame from the Lace Heart Layering Frames. I then masked the scalloped edges and added Moonstone Glimmer Paste over the Vintage Flourish Stencil. Once the paste was dry, I sliced the panel down the center and set it aside.

Next, I die-cut two of the half-scalloped circles from the Lovely Layouts: Posted Dies, the scalloped heart from the Lace Heart Layering Frames Dies, a few of the roses and leaves from the Bold Backgrounds: Vintage Roses Dies that I trimmed and pieced together. I then assembled the card front onto a 4 x 11-inch card base, scoring it at 2 3/4 inches from each end, once folded will create a gatefold card base. I trimmed the base slightly smaller than the front so that the scalloped edges would be more visible.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a couple of sentiments from the Mailbox Memos Stamp Set

Taylor Swift Inspired Pop Up / Light Up Card | Ralph Tyndall Designs + Hero Arts

Taylor Swift, Inspired, Pop Up, Light Up, Card, Ralph Tyndall Designs, Hero Arts, how to, hand made card, Stamps, stamping, die cutting, card making, ilovedoingallthingscrafty,

Hello friends and welcome back! 

Today's Taylor Swift-inspired card showcases products from Ralph Tyndall Designs. If you're not already following Ralph, be sure to check him out 👉 Here  His card-making style is truly unique, and his ASMR Reels are captivating, drawing viewers in with every swipe and tap. I was absolutely thrilled when Ralph invited me to create some projects with his new product line, and I'm beyond excited to share the creations I've made with you. 


HOW TOs (card recipe/supplies at the end)


To begin, I first die-cut the curtains for the stage using RT Stage Curtain Fancy Die. Next, using one of the RT Stage Curtain Stencils, I added the shadowing to the curtain. To the back of the curtains for extra strength and reinforcement, I glued a trimmed 1/2 inch strip down each side of the curtain panels. 

Now, die-cut the crowd. I used the same die cut from the RT Center Stage Crowd Fancy Die and die cut it out two times and just flipped one so that the silhouettes would all look different when staked together. Trim the back crowd layer to be shorter than the front of the audience. To that back layer, stamp out the sentiment from the RT Center Stage Bundle using white ink and heat set it in white embossing powder.

To make the stage Pop up, I created a couple of springs. One, made from red cardstock matching the curtains, that will rest behind the curtain cutouts, while the other, made from black cardstock, will be positioned in front of the audience. Each spring was cut from paper measuring 5.5 inches by 2 inches and scored at half-inch intervals. Once folded and glued in place, they will effortlessly spring into action, adding dynamic flair to the stage. Set the springs, the curtain, and the crowd aside until the card is ready to be assembled.

For the background of the stage, I used another stencil RT Stage Curtain Stencils to blend out the flooring, masking off the back wall. To make it look like a smokey stage with a spotlight in the center, I used masking tape to create a spotlight effect using Intens-ified Black Ink.

Once the background was done, I stamped the images from the RT Center Stage Bundle set onto the background panel. I used the curtain to make sure all my elements would be in view. Since this is also a Light Up card I punched out three holes where the spotlight centers are and one in the beam above that would be hidden by the curtain. To the back of the panel, I glued a piece of vellum to cover up the holes. Next, I taped down the lights from an EZ Light Unit to the openings of the panel. I then placed the battery in the Unit and secured it to the panel behind where the curtain will be. I then used foam tape to allow space between the panels for the lights, wire, and push button. Remove the release tape and attach the background to the card base.

On a white piece of cardstock, I stamped out what looked like a silhouette of a singer. In this case my  "Taylor Swift." I then die-cut the image using the coordinating die from the set. To the image, I used a glitter pen to add details and color to a sparkly dress, boots, and highlights in her hair. I also had to bling out the mic and stand. Once you are ready to add the singer to the scene, use foam to glue her in place which will also add some added dimension.

Now that all the elements are done, it is time to assemble the stage. Start by attaching the red spring to the top and the black spring to the bottom. Glue the curtain in place followed by the front layer of the crowd. Next, add some thick foam to the back layer of the crowd and glue it in place. Add Taylor Swift to your stage and for a touch of bling I added some gems to the stage's background. I should have done this step before the assembly, but I added some white gel pen details to add some highlights. In hindsight, it would have been a lot easier to do that before these pieces were glued in place.

To the inside, I stamped another sentiment from the RT Center Stage Bundle I also added a couple of the rub-on transfer designs to complete the card.

You and Bee Honey Card | Picket Fence Studios

Bee, Honey, Punny, Card, Picket Fence Studios,how to, hand made card, Stamps, stamping, die cutting, card making, ilovedoingallthingscrafty, Nature's Wonderland Release, Paper Pouncers

Hello, and Happy Valentine's Day my friends!

Today's card is part of the new collection from Picket Fence's Nature's Wonderland Release, and I couldn't help but make it love-themed with a punny sentiment to celebrate the day😉 Join me and the design team over on Instagram for a fun Hop and chances to win prizes!

Besides, a little stamping and ink pouncing, the majority of the card was die-cutting and assembly. So I won't go into much detail.

For the bees, I cut out 3 different layers black, white, and yellow. I trimmed out and pieced what I needed. For the little heart, I just colored the white layer with a pink marker. Before gluing the layers together I added some color to the wings and the bee bellies with markers. Once they were glued together, I then linked the antennas and glued the Bees to the card front. Doesn't it look like their bodies are forming a heart?

For the cherry blossoms, I used a Paper Pouncer to add pink ink to the center of the flowers. I then cut an additional white layer that I kept together by affixing tape to the back of the die cuts and then glued the pink layer to it. To finish them off I added a pink gem to each center.

The sentiment was stamped out using the Black Hybrid Ink Pad and then fussy cut.

Hello friends and Happy Monday!

Today's card features the super cool Mailbox Card Base from the Vintage Love Release from Honey Bee Stamps which I magically turned into a mailbox for a Gift card, so keep reading to see how I did that.

CARD RECIPE

Gift Card Post Card- Mini Postcard Die

Background Stamps - Postmarked Stamp Set

Vintage Love, Mailbox, Gift Card, Card , Honey Bee Stamps, Surprise, how to, handmade card, Stamps, ilovedoingallthingscrafty, stamping, die cutting, cardmaking,Valentine's Card,

To create the space for the Gift Card, I added a thin piece of foam tape along the edge of the top layer of the mailbox and then glued it to the bottom layer. 

To hold the gift card I simply used a tape runner and applied low tack tape to the back of the gift card I then attached it to the Mini Postcard Die that I had stamped using images from the Postmarked Stamp Set.

To keep the mailbox door closed I cut a thin strip of magnetic material and attached it to the door and the inside of the mailbox.

Gingerbread, House Treat Box,Card,Pixie Dust Designs, Gingy Dress-Up, Gable House Box,how to,handmade card,Stamps,ilovedoingallthingscrafty,stamping, diecutting,cardmaking,

Hello Friends! 

Today I am excited to be guesting for Pixi Dust Designs. They just had their Christmas Release and it is packed with so much cuteness 😍 So let me show you the inspiration projects I created.

PROJECT RECIPE


Box Base - Gable House Box Die Set

Handle (optional) - Interchangeable Oval Bag/Topper

Christmas Details - Gingerbread House Add-On Die Set


This darling Gingerbread House Treat Box is perfect for gifting a small treat to someone special this season. 


Gingerbread, House Treat Box,Card,Pixie Dust Designs, Gingy Dress-Up, Gable House Box,how to,handmade card,Stamps,ilovedoingallthingscrafty,stamping, diecutting,cardmaking,

I love all the sparkles and all the embellishments.  I think all the extra touches like using glitter paper, gel pen details, and adding gem and pearl stickers take this project to another level!

Gingerbread, House Treat Box,Card,Pixie Dust Designs, Gingy Dress-Up, Gable House Box,how to,handmade card,Stamps,ilovedoingallthingscrafty,stamping, diecutting,cardmaking,

As you can see there is a theme here. Can you tell I love gingerbread 😋

CARD RECIPE
Gingerbread, House Treat Box,Card,Pixie Dust Designs, Gingy Dress-Up, Gable House Box,how to,handmade card,Stamps,ilovedoingallthingscrafty,stamping, diecutting,cardmaking,

For the background, I stamped out the gingerbread house and candy canes and heat-set them using white ink and embossing powder. Next, I masked off the area at the top and ink blended the sky. To it, I then added water splatters followed by white splatters for stars. Once dry I added glossy accents to some of the stamped areas to make them shine.

Next, I added a small strip of white glitter paper for snow. Popped up the stamped Gingy Dressed Up Cutties with foam, and finished the card with the sentiment.



I hope you enjoyed both of my gingerbread-inspired projects today. Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
